The complete equation of motion for a single compartment model (SCM) includes an inertance term to describe pressure changes in phase with acceleration, as well as terms for resistance and elastance. Inertance has traditionally been excluded from the model when measuring respiratory mechanics at con
The measurement of passive respiratory mechanics by the single-breath occlusion technique is one of the more frequently used tests of infant lung function. Measurements are routinely done under chloral hydrate sedation, and a possible influence of sleep stages on these measurements has not been eval
